Comprehensive security patterns for authentication, authorization, input validation, and common vulnerability prevention
What this skill does
# Security Implementation Guide
Production-ready security patterns for web applications.
## Input Validation
### Sanitization
```typescript
import DOMPurify from 'isomorphic-dompurify';
function sanitizeHTML(dirty: string): string {
return DOMPurify.sanitize(dirty, {
ALLOWED_TAGS: ['b', 'i', 'em', 'strong', 'p'],
ALLOWED_ATTR: []
});
}
// SQL injection prevention - use parameterized queries
const result = await db.query(
'SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = $1',
[email] // Never interpolate directly!
);
```
### XSS Prevention
```tsx
// React automatically escapes
<div>{userInput}</div> // Safe
// Dangerous - avoid dangerouslySetInnerHTML
<div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: sanitizeHTML(userInput) }} />
// Set security headers
app.use(helmet({
contentSecurityPolicy: {
directives: {
defaultSrc: ["'self'"],
scriptSrc: ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'"],
styleSrc: ["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'"],
}
}
}));
```
## Authentication
### Password Hashing
```typescript
import bcrypt from 'bcrypt'; // allow-secret
async function hashPassword(password: string): Promise<string> { // allow-secret
const saltRounds = 12;
return bcrypt.hash(password, saltRounds); // allow-secret
}
async function verifyPassword(password: string, hash: string): Promise<boolean> { // allow-secret
return bcrypt.compare(password, hash); // allow-secret
}
```
### Rate Limiting
```typescript
import rateLimit from 'express-rate-limit';
const loginLimiter = rateLimit({
windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000,
max: 5, // 5 attempts
message: 'Too many login attempts',
standardHeaders: true,
legacyHeaders: false,
});
app.post('/api/login', loginLimiter, loginHandler);
```
## CSRF Protection
```typescript
import csrf from 'csurf';
const csrfProtection = csrf({ cookie: true });
app.get('/form', csrfProtection, (req, res) => {
res.render('form', { csrfToken: req.csrfToken() });
});
app.post('/process', csrfProtection, (req, res) => {
// Protected endpoint
});
```

a11y-audit
IncludedRun accessibility audits on web projects combining automated scanning (axe-core, Lighthouse) with WCAG 2.1 AA compliance mapping, manual check guidance, and structured reporting. Output is configurable: markdown report only, markdown plus machine-readable JSON, or markdown plus issue tracker integration. Use this skill whenever the user mentions "accessibility audit", "a11y audit", "WCAG audit", "accessibility check", "compliance scan", or asks to check a web project for accessibility issues. Also trigger when the user wants to verify WCAG conformance or map findings to a specific standard (CAN-ASC-6.2, EN 301 549, ADA/AODA).
erpclaw
IncludedAI-native ERP system with self-extending OS. Full accounting, invoicing, inventory, purchasing, tax, billing, HR, payroll, advanced accounting (ASC 606/842, intercompany, consolidation), and financial reporting. 413 actions across 14 domains, 43 expansion modules. Constitutional guardrails, adversarial audit, schema migration. Double-entry GL, immutable audit trail, US GAAP.
assess
IncludedAssesses and rates quality 0-10 across multiple dimensions (correctness, maintainability, security, performance, testability, simplicity) with pros/cons analysis. Compares against project conventions and prior decisions from memory. Produces structured evaluation reports with actionable improvement suggestions. Use when evaluating code, designs, architectures, or comparing alternative approaches.
spring-boot-security-jwt
IncludedProvides JWT authentication and authorization patterns for Spring Boot 3.5.x covering token generation with JJWT, Bearer/cookie authentication, database/OAuth2 integration, and RBAC/permission-based access control using Spring Security 6.x. Use when implementing authentication or authorization in Spring Boot applications.
